Basically all KDE apps have the same dependency set. So install one and the next ones will only install the app most likely. On KDE itself you’d already have these.

Who cares tbh

Its not by the same dev. Tavi seems involved via the git commits but the project seems to mostly involve someone who goes by relan and another called IratePorcupine

The current beta versions of Thunderbird are implementating a tray icon for linux so soon this fork seems like it’ll only have 2 unique features…

How doesn’t it work properly for you?

I use the flatpak on Fedora but have used the tar version in the past because the package managed version is hijacked with stupid Redhat bookmarks and homepage that loves to return after being removed randomly.

80 year old grandmas trying to find the Ctrl and Alt buttons on her printer…

Slammed/slams is my absolute least favorite headline trend of the past decade. So trash.

Soon to be rebranded as Thunderbird

Cromite

Because Firefox scrolling is terrible on android otherwise I’d use it.

Pretty FOSS?

PC - Thinkpad T14s Gen 4: EndeavourOS, Firefox and Thunderbird with the Proton suite of things such as Mail, Pass and VPN - I do pay for them but I think it’s worth it.

Phone - Pixel 8 with GrapheneOS and as many F-Droid apps as possible. Proton apps for Mail, Pass, Drive, VPN. Cromite browser. The only that aren’t are probably my banking apps, but I could always switch to web I guess.

I think my biggest hurdle is a Map app that has traffic data that isn’t Google maps.

Per this article from EndeavourOS discovery I was able to repair my similar issue.

However my device wasn’t encrypted. However near the bottom are instructions if you are and they don’t quite match what you said you did. Maybe give it a try?

"Encrypted installs In case /dev/sda2 is the encrypted root partition you need to unlock:

sudo cryptsetup open /dev/sda2 mycryptdevice

It will ask for your LUKS passphrase and unlocks the device into the path /dev/mapper/mycryptdevice

This path can be used to mount the device:

sudo mount /dev/mapper/mycryptdevice /mnt

Followed by mounting the ESP (EFI-System-Partition) into the already mounted system:

sudo mount /dev/sdXn /mnt/efi

where in all cases /dev/sdXn needs to be changed according to what is used on your install as partition/device path and the mount path for the ESP needs to get changed according to your installed system in case. If it is /efi you need to mount on /mnt/efi if it is /boot/efi it would be /mnt/boot/efi …"

Great read. Thanks

I legit thought that was about to be the joke he was going for at first.

Holy moly great news. There’s hope for our /home after all. I think Firefox has an open bug thread or request thread for XDG Base Directory that’s like …20 years old?

Go for EndeavourOS if you want to use Arch with a lot of legwork done.

This is really cool man, its wild how much things have changed but those are super endearing.

I own quite a lot of mp3s legally. Host them on a 50 dollar raspberry pi with something called Navidrome which uses a protocol called subsonic.

I can stream my own music from my home to my phone etc or anywhere. Otherwise yeah just having them locally is the other best option.

As a programmer: “your data is boring. I am not interested in leveraging this for anything besides getting the service you are using to work as well as possible”

Also me as a programmer: “yo, you don’t need that data, stop asking for it. Ohh, your app is broken because it can’t access permissions? Yeet.”

It’s not about the programmers. It’s about the company and the ability to make money off of data they get from you. You should be the one who gets money for your data. Not Microsoft, not Google etc.

Is Microsoft making money off of this particular telemetry data? Maybe not. It should always be opt-in
